Just had a test ride. Excellent. It had only done 15 miles so couldn't rag it, but loads of low down torque. Handles really well and, I think, looks the nuts. And only group 14 Ins.
Downside is that I will be getting an MY03 WRX instead of STI so as I can have bike as well (once I've softened up the missus that is).

The new SV does look :cool:
You won't regret the 03 WRX over an STI - it's a great car and with PPP should be the best of both wolds :D

Matt,
Local Suzi dealer has not had the new GSXR 1000 in yet.
He did say though that demand is expected to be high so a demo might not be available.
Get the SV, you know you want to!

No chance of me getting the twin as I hate twins!!! Besides, out and out sports bikes are my thing and the GSXR is just such a capable machine, from all the reviews (and figures) I've seen. I'll prolly stick with my Thunderace for several more years though as it's a top all round bike and not really worth replacing....
